Meat is Heat: The Effects of Diet on Global WarmingWritten By Michael Greger M.D. FACLM on December 5th, 2017

One of the most prestigious medical journals in the worldeditorialized that climate change represents the biggest globalhealth threat of the 21st century. Currently, chronic diseases are byfar the leading cause of death. Might there be a way to combat both atthe same time? For example, riding our bikes instead of driving is awin-win-win for the people, planet, and pocketbook. Are there similarwin-win situations when it comes to diet?

As I discuss in my video Diet and Climate Change: Cooking Up a Storm,the foods that create the most greenhouse gases appear to be the samefoods that are contributing to many of our chronic diseases.Researchers found that meat (including fish), eggs, and dairy had thegreatest negative environmental impact, whereas grains, beans, fruits,and vegetables had the least impact. And not only did the foods withthe heaviest environmental impact tend to have lower nutritionalquality, but they also had a higher price per pound. So, avoiding themgives us that triple win scenario. morehttps://nutritionfacts.org/2017/12/05/meat-is-heat-the-effects-of-diet-on-global-warming/

I'd suggest some birth control for our species might be in order.That, or a good old fashioned plague. 7++ billions and counting,and you're telling us we need to change our diet? Bears can't.

"Anthopocentric" science is self-serving masturbation.... just my not-so-humble opinion. Seems a bit out of line to tell us to "just eat beans"so others can keep cranking out kids like this was the paleolithic.

These small global temperature increases of the last 25 years and overthe last century are likely natural changes that the globe has seen manytimes in the past.

Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperature changes

William M. GrayColorado State UniversityThis small warming is likely a result of the natural alterations inglobal ocean currents which are driven by ocean salinity variations.Ocean circulation variations are as yet little understood.

Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperaturechanges. We are not that influential.

There is a negative or complementary nature to human-induced greenhousegas increases in comparison with the dominant natural greenhouse gas ofwater vapour and its cloud derivatives.

It has been assumed by the human-induced global warming advocates thatas anthropogenic greenhouse gases increase that water vapour andupper-level cloudiness will also rise and lead to accelerated warming -a positive feedback loop.

It is not the human-induced greenhouse gases themselves which causesignificant warming but the assumed extra water vapour and cloudinessthat some scientists hypothesise.
